The End Is Near

Published by Kirsten at 8:56 pm under Blog, Blogger, Friends, Work

No, no, no. All you religious D-day freaks can go back to from wherever you came from. I am talking about the end of my employment with Mad Scientist and the gang. They have decided on a replacement for me (a fine choice, I might add) and she will be starting on Monday. I’ll help train her, or rather show her the ropes and just be there for questions, and my last day will be on Tuesday the 17th. As far as a new job, it’s looking like I’ll be working at my friend’s place. Mad Sci was chatting with her for quite a long time the other day, and said he was gonna talk with her some more this evening after the church council meeting. He thinks she’s pretty close to presenting an offer, which would be great. There’s way more room for growth at her company, and I can go so much further. Hopefully I’ll know more tomorrow, and believe me, as soon as I know, you will all know (well, after I call my mom, dad, sister and a few close friends).

I got a chance to talk to The Man tonight. First of all, he shall herein be known as VegasRic. Yes, he is still a man, and a mighty fine one at that. But we shall be just friends, which is a big relief. I’m still wildly attracted to him, but now there’s no pressure, no wondering about the status of things, none of the other pressure that comes with a more romantic relationship. It was a good talk. As for romance, I’d really prefer that it happen spontaneously rather than the whole formal dating process. I mean, you have less time to think about it that way, but it’s so much more fun. And as for The Man VegasRic, we have plans to do cannonballs in his hot tub tomorrow after I get out of work. I think we’ll get about 1 each before we empty the spa.

I’ve been thinking a lot about my blog and the upcoming, inevitable change to Beta. I love my template, but I want to be able to use the widgets and all the other cool features, especially now that more and more bugs are being worked out. But, if you have a non-Blogger issued template and want to keep it, you cannot use widgets without rewriting the code. I bought books and have been studying the help section here, but I’m not so sure. I know eventually there will be non-Blogger issued templates that will work with the widgets. At the moment, as much as I love it, I am actually getting bored with my template. Gasp! I like what Gouda has done with her place, and since she was so kind as to post the code for the changes she made, I just might be a cheesy copycat. I need to put together some sort of header pic first, because Gouda paid money for hers and Macoosh has skills, and I have neither money nor skills, I might have to hit up friends to help me come up with something awesome. (I’m talking to you, Ric!) In the meantime, I’ll continue playing around on my test blog, which contains nothing of interest or substance to you, which is why you haven’t seen it.

Anyhoo, time for dinner. I’ve been saying that for over an hour now. Time for dinner. Yeah.
